Hunt: Showdown Launches Into Early Access

Hunt: Showdown, the first person competitive PvP bounty hunting game from Crytek, has launched into Early Access.

The game features PvP and PvE bounty hunting across four Louisiana inspired maps, where up to ten players, either solo or in groups of two, must face off against each other.

Each mission features a hunt to locate a target, kill it, banish it, and then escape alive. Working against you are not only the boss targets, but AI enemies and randomly generated lower level creatures which will be aiming to stop inhibit your progress.

Speaking of progression, three paths await you as a Bounty Hunter. Hunter, which focused on health and retaining traits post-death, Bloodline which unlocks gear and higher-tier traits, and Bloodline Prestige which allows you to reset your rank after reaching level 100.
